Week 6 brings us a match on Sep 3rd where Celtic will host Rangers in a meeting of these two Premiership teams in the anticipated Glasgow derby. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 15 degrees, which should make for a nice day for football. In their last match, Celtic recorded a 9-0 blowout win against Dundee United. Kyogo Furuhashi struck first for Celtic in the 15th minute, then Kyogo Furuhashi added another in the 40th minute In the end, Dundee United was frustrated by Celtic’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Celtic ended the match with the shutout victory. Celtic should be reasonably happy with their recent performance, earning 20 points in their last 10 matches, while in their last match, 2nd placed Rangers, recorded a 4-0 shutout win against Ross County. John Lundstram scored the first goal for Rangers in the 24th minute, then Antonio Čolak added another in the 39th minute on a feed from Scott Wright In the end, Ross County couldn’t muster any offence and Rangers ran away with the shutout win. With 18 points in their last 10 matches Rangers should be reasonably happy with their performance.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season. Last season Celtic won the head to head battle with 2 wins and 1 losss.
Antonio Čolak has been on a hot streak lately. In the last five games, hes scored 5 goals for Rangers. Celtic is fortunate enough to have Kyogo Furuhashi in top form. In the last 5 matches the attacker has scored six goals.
